After declaring in last week’s report that we’ve had “ideal conditions” to get on the ice this year, you can imagine that I haven’t been very well thought of since!  Yes, I should know better and leave well enough alone.  My sincere apologies to Josh and Aron as well as everyone else that have dealt…

I’m not trying to wake up any monsters, but we’ve sure had ideal conditions to get on the ice so far this year.  Aside from a few nasty days in the mix, our temperatures have remained reasonable and travel conditions are about as good as it gets.  After two previous seasons of brutal if not…

Typical winter conditions have moved back into northern Wisconsin, but it certainly doesn’t seem to have slowed the bite down one bit.  Aron Kastern reports a really hot whitefish bite around the Apostle Islands with some big numbers days and non stop action.  A few eater lakers mixed in are an added bonus and definitely…

This week’s report has a little bit of everything in it.  From small fish, to big fish, to strange fish, it’s all happening right now both inland and on Chequamegon Bay.  Josh Teigen reports a strong mixed bag bite of trout still happening around Bayfield and the Apostle Islands.  He spent a day with Josh…

Well, it’s been an eventful week around here for lots of reasons.  We had a new addition to our family.  Ms. Berkley arrived at our home after her journey from Minnesota on Saturday, and she’s already become irreplaceable.  Morgan has a new buddy, and we have a new fishing partner.  However, her football allegiance has…

Extremely cold temperatures over the past week haven’t made for comfortable fishing conditions, but the new ice has allowed the guys to get on a really good trout bite.  Long time friend and customer Scott Mueller from Cedarburg, WI and his son in law Charlie Schell had two days scheduled with Josh Teigen this week.…

Happy New Year everyone!!!  2015 has brought some frigid conditions.  New ice is forming on Chequamegon Bay, and the trout bite is starting to pick up.  Aron Kastern  started the week fishing with Larry and Alex Anderson from Iowa.  They began the trip targeting trout on the bay and were marking a lot of fish…

It’s crazy to think that this is our last fishing report for 2014.  Man how time flies!  We hope you all had a very Merry Christmas spent with friends and family.  Hopefully Santa put a few new lures in your stocking as well…  Our crew continues to get after it on the ice, and it’s…

Slowly but surely, our ice fishing season is ramping up!  Last weekend’s warm up and the cool down that followed has left our ice conditions on Chequamegon Bay in pretty much the same shape as our last report.  The only change would be on the Washburn shoreline where ice thickness ranges from 7″ to only…

Our good friend Greg Miller from The Hunt was home on a break between hunts and joined me for a day on the ice chasing panfish on one of our local  inland lakes this week.  After searching around for a bit, we located some nice crappies and bluegills in 24′ -26′ of water using tungsten jigs…
